Growl lets you know when things happen. Files finished downloading, friends came online, new email has arrived - Growl can let you know when any event occurs with a subtle notification.
Sounds like the mother of all distractions. Now that I've heard of it, I'm going to forget it as quickly as possible.

Depends on how you set it up. The notifications can be filtered, and many of the notification 'views' are non intrusive, and you may not even notice them when you are working on something. I believe they can be configured to appear behind applications if they are full screen as well.
I use Jenkins as a build server and I am going to install the Growl Plugin to let me know when a build has failed.
There are a lot of plugins related to the program, including one for Visual Studio (2010, but it shouldn't be difficult to make work on later versions).
And OT: I hate my laptop's keyboard as some keys are goofed up.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

According to Linda Thorson, talking on the Home Service this morning, he was an avid naturalist and would often great visitors in the nud! And of course he was a man of great taste, even marrying a Hungarian.

Just put my dirty dishes with my clean dishes!
Can you believe that?
Luckily I noticed just in time so I could clean out the dishwasher before the dishes mingled too much.
Could've ended badly!
Someone should really make a (thriller) movie out of this.
Or maybe I should write a book.
Don't know if I can take much more excitement today

Sounds like a metaphor for picking up someone else's krufty software project, except there it's thinking the dishes are clean when you take them out of the dishwasher, eating off of them, and discovering you've acquired some creeping crud disease.
Hmmm, ok, the metaphor doesn't really work.

If this was a software metaphor I'd probably take out the dishes only to find out they were all dirty and now I have to get an entire new kitchen to get out the stink
Nope, I was really just talking about my dishes!

Aye, and not just the kitchen, but usually the whole house!

And if it was a Micro$oft house you'd need to start with an entirely new, unproved technology and a budget that was clearly a hallucination.

Nah, you'd just buy you're neighbor's Rube Goldberg house with that infinite budget.

Get a dog. No dirty dishes. Simples.

Another woe of a single middle class male is that he can't take a dog because he's not at home for most of the day.
Getting a cat later this summer though

Have them put wheels on the feet, and you can still walk the thing, although the kids at the park are kinda freaked out. (Note: Don't offer them candy to calm them down, you might get tazed)

You need to get out more man. People aren't supposed to rot inside all the time. Need that work-life balance. Build a life. Think with your p*cker and find some chicks. Anything to get out and enjoy the world.
